Try running you program under true DOS mode. When the program crashes, type
symify _you_executable_file_with_the_extension. I'll print the names of the
functions in the call stack : just note the first matching function
(beginning by the top) that is in your program, and note the line number.
Then just try a breakpoint in Rhide at this line to see variable status and
so on.

/*A similar problem I've encoutered is when loading bitmpaps. When passing
filenames to these functions, don't use string constants, but string
variables. I don't know why, but it solved my problem.*/

The program don't always crash in Win because, I think, Windows does'nt
handle all programs exceptions.
